Sustainable Deeds
Here we have compiled a list of sustainable Deeds to help you continue to Escape from Climate Change after the game. No matter if you're just starting or a weathered veteran, you're sure to find some inspiration here!
Which deed will you choose to start with?
#1 Have a Climate Conversation
Having conversations about climate change in our daily lives plays a huge role in creating change. We take our cues about what's important from what hear our family, friends and colleagues talking about.
But talking about Climate Change isn't always easy. #TalkingClimate produced this evidence-based, practical guide to make those conversations easier and more meaningful.
Who will you have a Climate Conversation with?
#2 Try the Veggie Way
Invite 2 friends to a tasty vegan dinner
Check your fridge and freezer. Invite 2 friends to a meal, based on vegetarian leftovers that would otherwise be thrown away (3 kg CO2 reduction)
Lots of food is wasted. Finish everything that is on your plate for a whole day (1 kg CO2 reduction)
#3 Zero Waste
Next time you go for a run or walk, go Plogging! Pick up trash along your route and leave it behind a little cleaner and prettier. Tip: bring a bag along for the trash.
Ready for a challenge? Try a 30-day Zero Waste challenge, or carrying all your trash around for a day!
